According to the Houston Chronicle’s Aaron Wilson, McGary is set to meet with 14 NFL teams by the time the 2019 NFL Draft begins. Although the Texans are not specifically mentioned as a stop on McGary’s trip around the NFL, he could be a potential option for Houston in either the first or second rounds. McGary’s resume is quite robust.He’s a three year starter at right tackle for the Washington Huskies, a two-time All Pac-12 selection, and one of the best stories of this draft class. Measuring in at 6’7” and 317 pounds, he has the build of a starting right tackle in the league. In his three years starting, McGary played against fourteen ranked opponents, so you can't say that he has faced elite talentMcGary is a beast at the point of contact.He understands leverage and how to effectively combo block with his fellow lineman.On this play against Utah, McGary (#58) blasts the defensive tackle out of the hole in a counter run and then works his way up to steamroll a smaller linebacker.He is the type of lineman who's only intention is to bury you. That tenacity is more than welcome at any level of football, and certainly in the NFL.McGary does a good job staying low and driving his feet throughout the play to create a massive hole for his running back.His inside run blocking game is top notch when everything is working in tandem. What McGary is not: a polished pass protector who can maintain blocks and knows how to anchor down against adept pass rushers. McGary’s Kryptonite in the pass blocking game is speed. Let’s roll the film.Yikes Play No. 1:McGary is at right tackle with a wing back to his outside. This forces the defender to play a wide-9 technique instead of being directly on top of the offensive tackle. This creates a longer route for the defensive end to get to the QB Womens Arian Foster Jersey , but it also creates more distance between him and McGary.On this play, McGary whiffs because he lunges at the defensive end as he moves up the field instead of kick-sliding back to meet the DE where he is trying to go. Yikes Play No. 2:McGary gets beat around the corner by a speedy DE. All the defender does is emphatically swipe at McGary’s hands and dip his shoulders.That was enough to get by him.Without being able to grab onto the DE, McGary has to drop his shoulders to extend further out.He crosses his feet and forces the QB to run up into the pocket too early.Yikes Play No. 3:The kick-slide. The few plays where Washington throws the ball more than 12 yards down the field offer the best view into McGary’s current pass blocking technique.From this play, it’s apparent that McGary has some learning to do before NFL pass rushers come calling. Imagine Bradley Chubb going against McGary at this point. A player like Chubb, who will normally line up against the right tackle, could have some serious success against McGary if the young lineman cannot learn to get depth in his kick slide.Yikes Play No 4:To be fair, I actually am a fan of McGary and his run blocking film, but the Texansneed to know that the hype train running McGary’s stock up may be masking some flaws in his game.Here the Huskies have three players blocking two Buckeyes, which allows two linebackers to run untouched into the backfield. Now, there were other definite lapses in protection on this play http://www.thetexanslockerroom.com/authentic-bradley-roby-jersey , but McGary recognizing delayed blitzes such as this play will be critical for him if he wants to stay on the outside on the next level. I rarely believe that a player who has played tackle his entire career can seamlessly transition inside to guard and realistically thrive there, yet McGary may be one of those cases where guard could be a better fit than tackle in the NFL. A 6’7” guard may cause some vision problems for the QB, but his ability to combo-block and mauler mentality make him a good fit at right guard. The Texans’ first and foremost need right now is offensive linemen with the ability to maintain a block. No holding. No cut blocking (which you see quite often in the UW-OSU game from McGary). No watching the QB get sacked. Washington’s system didn't prepare McGary to be a Day One starter in the NFL, and the Texans need a Day One starter. With the league-wide interest in McGary peaking right before the draft, the Texans will likely only get one shot at drafting McGary: in the first round.With that in mind, I wouldn’t want to see McGary wearing a Texans hat after the 23rd pick is announced.If he falls into the second round, however, I would not be afraid of the Texans taking him with one of their two picks there and pairing him with another early round offensive lineman. Still, there would need to be a plan in place to let McGary shine in the run game and develop in pass protection.The team that takes a flier on McGary needs to focus on developing his technique, not submerging him in a fledgling offensive line. HOUSTON (AP) — Now that the Houston Texans believe they’ve finally found their franchise quarterback in Deshaun Watson Womens Derek Newton Jersey , they want to do everything they can to make things easier on him.“As long as I’m here, I’m going to make every effort to put the pieces in place around him to help him, support him, and help him be successful on the field,” general manager Brian Gaine said. “That might be on the perimeter. That might be on the offensive line. That might be in the backfield. That might even be on defense — a guy that can generate more turnovers that gets the ball back to him even more than that. He’s certainly a centerpiece in terms of how we want to build our team and it’s a focal point of how we want to build the roster.”Their first priority in this year’s draft should be improving the offensive line after Watson was sacked an NFL-leading 62 times as Houston won the AFC South but lost to the Colts in the wild-card round. Watson played every game in his second year after having season-ending knee surgery as a rookie, but was banged-up for a chunk of the season while dealing with a partially collapsed lung and broken ribs from taking hits.The Texans have three picks in the first two rounds, with their top selection coming at No. 23 a year after they didn’t have any picks in the first or second rounds because they shipped their top two picks to get rid of Brock Osweiler and trade up to get Watson in 2017.While Gaine naturally wouldn’t say what direction they planned to go in the first round, he did say he’s been impressed with the talent at offensive tackle in this draft. That includes Florida’s Jawaan Taylor and Washington State’s Andre Dillard.“It’s a good year in the draft at tackle for both the left and right side at various points in the draft, from starting-caliber players to backup players,” he said.Houston signed free agent left tackle Matt Kalil this offseason Womens Jay Prosch Jersey , but it’s unclear how much he’ll bolster the group after missing all of last season with a knee injury. The Texans started Julie’n Davenport at left tackle last season and Kendall Lamm played right after Seantrel Henderson had a season-ending ankle injury in Houston’s opener. Gaine indicated they plan to stick with Davenport at left tackle, but need him to take a step forward in his third year. Lamm left in free agency, but Henderson is healthy and they expect his return will improve the protection for Watson.If the Texans do draft an offensive tackle, Gaine would prefer that he’s versatile.“Nowadays you need a guy that can athletically block on the left, equally block on the right,” Gaine said. “There’s going to be a good pass rusher on the right side of the offense as much as there is on the left … you want them to be fully dimensional, full skillset, and not just be a power guy or not just be an athlete that can handle power. Ideally, we want the full complementary skill set to play left and right tackle.”Some things to know about the Texans as the draft approaches:CORNERBACK DEPTHThe Texans lost veteran Kareem Jackson in free agency and cut 2015 first-round pick Kevin Johnson after four injury-filled and ineffective seasons. They signed free agents Briean Boddy-Calhoun and Bradley Roby and have veteran Johnathan Joseph but could use the draft to add more depth at the position with Joseph turning 35 this month.QUESTIONS AT RUNNING BACKHouston could look to add a running back in the later rounds with starter Lamar Miller entering the final year of his contract and D’Onta Foreman yet to show he can return to form after surgery to repair a torn Achilles tendon in 2017. The Doak Walker Award winner appeared in just one game last season after rushing for 327 yards in 10 games as a rookie in 2017.Despite his struggling to get healthy and contribute last year, the Texans remain confident that he can help them in the future.“From everything that we hear Trevor Daniel Jersey White , he’s really working hard and he’s ready to go,” Gaine said. “It’s a big year for him.”VALUE IN LOWER ROUNDSThe Texans added some good players in last year’s draft despite not picking in the first or second round. Safety Justin Reid, a third-round pick, made 12 starts and had three interceptions and 88 tackles. Fellow third-round pick tight end Jordan Akins made six starts and had 225 yards receiving. Houston also found value in the fourth round with receiver Keke Coutee, who had 287 yards receiving and a touchdown in six games despite being slowed by hamstring injuries.
